Gifting and Receiving

Singing a little ditty

In or out of tune

Heart spoken

Carried theme

Painting a little story

Canvas stored

Heart present

Splattered for interpretation

Writing novel

Short story if you will

Chapter to chapter

Breathtaking

Attention grabber of the same

Lending a hand

When there is need

Person place or thing

Whenever and whatever the deed

Providing attentive ear

Shoulder resting place

Conflicting thoughts

Troubled soul telling in their face

Loving kindness

Gifted upon our hearts

Shared with another

Received more Love within our Hearts.

Artist unknown

Opening the Gift

On the desk

Sitting amidst clutter

Atop of what and what nots

Left alone far too long

Unopened

No attention given

Remains a box

Six-sided box

Covered with a bow

Orange in color

Contrasting green outer shell

What rest inside unopened box?

Why has it not been freed?

Open

Open Sacred Treasure

No longer collecting dust

Sands of time

Winds gust blows free

Look inside

What calls out in this moment in time?

Care for Gift

Waited for this moment…it has arrived.
